Thiruvananthapuram: The ongoing protest by Asha workers in Kerala demanding a pay hike entered its 50th day on Monday, with protest leaders intensifying their agitation by cutting their hair in front of the state secretariat. The symbolic act was meant to draw attention to their long-standing demands for better wages and recognition as government employees.
Despite repeated appeals, the workers claim that their concerns have not been adequately addressed by the state government. They have vowed to continue their protest until their demands are met.
